We donned our scarlet finery to show our support for American Heart Month and national Go Red for Women Day. Our rooftop photo fun was part of an effort by Fairview Red Wing Medical Center, the Red Wing Family YMCA and a plethora of other local businesses to remind the community about the dangers of cardiovascular disease by wearing red on Feb. 3.
You can see Go Red photos from around the Red Wing community here!

When Red Wing High School Boys Swim Team officials needed an easy and efficient way to share important information with a large number of swimmers, parents, coaches and fans without sending massive group emails, we were glad to jump in and help out by designing and programming the team’s very own spot on the web.
The new team website makes a splash as a one-stop center for information about the team. Visitors can easily check out schedules, team records and history, download important forms and immerse themselves in team news with a regularly updated blog.

We were pleased to help give our local athletes a boost. The Red Wing Booster Club, a nonprofit organization that promotes and supports all Red Wing High School sports activities, recently asked Confluence to help the organization achieve more recognition at local events. We worked closely with the Boosters to create a banner that educates the community about the club and gets people involved at the same time. And it looks really cool, too.
